Let’s be honest, people buy a T5 or T6 for a wide range of reasons. It might be to carry their work tools about, to transport a large family around on a daily basis in comfort and style, or maybe you want to escape the rat race and chill out by camping on a beach for the weekend. It might even be because you want to embrace the VW lifestyle with an outdoor activity, mountain biking, a water sport or whatever it might be. If that’s your particular requirement then maybe the C Sport from CoTrim is the van you have been looking for.

This is their C-Sport T6 demo. “This van came straight from our tame VW dealer as a brand-new factory-spec Kombi,” explained Jim Hart, our stunt man for the day, who just happens to be CoTrim’s Business Development Manager.
